The Duty of the Citizen.

We are always complaining of the
delinquency of our officials. 1t is
true that they should be patriots.
But we must be patriots before we
can reasonably hope that our officials
will be. The stream does not rise
higher than it's source, and it never
will. While we content ourselves
with the mere show of performing
our duty as voters and the real
source of popular government; while
we think Fourth of July bombast or
even fighting for the flag is the grand
evidence of patriotism, and grab any
piece of paper that bears the party
name, and put it into the ballot box
on election day, without knowing or
seeming to care what the effect will
be, the official stream will continue
to flow sluggishly and be filled with
impurities. 1t is hard work to be a
citizen of a Republic. If man
wants an easy citizenship the sooner
he gets under an absolute despotism,
the sooner he will find more nearly
what he wants than he can find any
where else. He will be likely to get
head cut off at any time and be prod
ded to suit the whims. of his master.
But the responsibility ofgovernment
will not bear a feathers weight upon
him. He will be as free as the air
so far as the responsibilities of gov
eminent are concerned If anybody
likes that sort OF freedom, he can
find it. But if he prefers a more ra-
tional kind of government; if he
would like to have some control of
his head and his own movements; if
he would like to have some rights
which the government ii bound to re.
spect, if, in word, he prefers pop
ular government, he must get his
shoulder under the weight of govern
ment and labor. and labor, and labor
hard to bear his full share of the
burden. We cannot have good gov
eminent or anything else that is
worth having unless we work for It.

sioners, they have ascertained that
there will be a shortage of 5000 in
the State appropriation, ON account
of a failure on the part of some of
the counties to collect the tax. Such
deficiencies should be deducted from
the portion assigned to the delin-
quent county and not make all the
other counties suffer for its neglect.
Mr.. Squier believes, however, that
the Board will be able to keep the

will he forever remembered Mrs. Hor-
ace Mann had written tale of West

slavery, held the foremost place, as
slavery must whenever aud wherever
it touches human life in fiction or his

that made the author keep back the
book from publication till all were
dead.
"The last one who died was achild Of
five or six at the time. He did deed
in his latter life that lighted up the
tragedy with moral glory that com.
pleted the book as q work of art-the
part that touches ON this was lately
written.
"It was the merest accident that the
work was not published before my sis
ter's death, as she so earnestly desired
it should be, for it delineated some Of
the actual observations she made at
the awakening Of her mind to the great
subject which so soon shook the whole

was only beginning to agitate US. The
Boston Mob did not take place, 1 think,

'.The book was written with no
moral object in view. but as she used
to say, it wrote itself on her soul, and
was transcribed as a relief.'

passed away, the manuscript could not

however; and after her death it came
